  • Do you remember we were standing here a year ago?
    Our minds were racing and time went slow
    If there was trouble in the world, we didn't know
    If we had a care, it didn't show
    Now I worry our horizon's been nothing new
    'Cause I get this feeling and maybe you get it too
    We're on a rollercoaster stuck on its loop-de-loop
    'Cause what we did one day on a whim has slowly become all we do

    All we do
    And now it's all we live for
    Now it's all we live for
    And now it's all we live for
    Might be what we die for
    Oh

    But it's okay
    I think I know a way
    It's so clear
    Why don't we just say, "One more year"?
    One more year
    One more year
    Oh
    One more year

    I never wanted any other way to spend our lives
    I know we promised we'd be doing this until we die
    Now I fear we might
    I never wanted any other way to spend our lives
    I know we promised we'd be doing this until we die
    Now I fear we might
    Ooh, now I fear we might
    I know we promised
    I know we promised we'd be doing this until we die
    Now I fear we might

    Now it's all we live for
    Now it's all we live for
    And now we're shining
    Nobody beside me
    Future is exciting
    Oh

    Do you remember we were standing here a year ago?
    Our minds were racing and time went slow
    If there was trouble in the world, we didn't know
    If we had a care, it didn't show
    But now I worry our horizon's been nothing new
    'Cause I get this feeling and maybe you get it too
    We're on a rollercoaster stuck on its loop-de-loop
    'Cause what we did one day on a whim has slowly become all we do

    Has slowly become all we do
    And now it's all we live for
    Now it's all we live for
    Now it's all we live for
    It might be what we die for
    'Cause now we're shining
    Somebody guide me
    Future is exciting
